Summary
Alicent hates Rhaenyra from the moment she meets her—standing at her door in boxers, infuriatingly gorgeous, after rudely waking her up at six in the fucking morning.
She hates everything about her, until she doesn’t actually hate her at all.
or, Rhaenyra thinks it would be a good idea to hide from a one night stand in Alicent’s apartment.

Summary
“I’m not asking you to sleep with me, Dr. Hightower, I just like to see how red your face can get. Besides, you’re the one who keeps suggesting it.”
Alicent Hightower is the chief of neurosurgery at Seattle Grace Hospital. Despite all her years of professionalism, all her years fighting for her position and building a reputation of being one of the most cutthroat people in the building, all of it manages to be undone the moment the chief of trauma, Rhaenyra Targaryen, gets under her skin. Alicent hates her more than anything.
Somehow, sleeping with her only makes things worse.

There is no war so hateful to the gods as a war between kin.

Summary
The issue Alicent has with Rhaenyra’s ego is simple—as a driver and a mechanic they have two very different jobs. Alicent’s job is to understand Rhaenyra’s relationship to the car and how it affects the build. Then, she has to accommodate. Alicent is always watching. Every turn of the wheel, every crash, every race start, every press of the pedal, Alicent is watching. It’s her job to count the flecks of rubber flying off the tyres at 360 KM/H. Rhaenyra, despite this, thinks she knows every fucking thing there is to know about her car. Alicent knows you can only see so much from inside. That’s something Rhaenyra refuses to understand.
Rhaenyra Targaryen is one of the most outstanding drivers in the world, with three F1 championships to her name and another season just kicking off. Alicent Hightower is the woman behind the car itself—the Number One Mechanic. Every build goes through her from chassis up. For two years, she's been working with Ferrari—specifically on Rhaenyra's car. The only problem with this is the two of them spend most of their time in the garage trying not to bite each other's heads off.

Summary
“There is something else you should know, before you come. I’d hate for you to be blindsided.”
'The way I was when Rhaenyra got married?' She almost asks, but holds her tongue.
“Yes?” She says, instead.
Viserys clears his throat. “It’s about Rhaenyra.”
“Of course it is.” She can’t hold back a biting remark. She wonders what it is this time. Has The Realm’s Delight decided to introduce a third person into her loving marriage? Rhaenyra’s never been quite satisfied with the conventional, after all. Or, perhaps, she’s pregnant again, with her third. It’s a daughter, perhaps. She’s always wanted a daughter. “What is it?”
“Well, she’s back from Essos. And… Her divorce has been finalised.”
Alicent needs to sit down.
//
Or, ex-childhood friends reunite after years of avoiding each other, and the entire Targaryen-Velaryon clan plays matchmakers.
